Frequently asked questions

What if the vacuum turns off
automatically or a warning light ,
comes on? See fig. 36
The vacuum has overheated. The tem-
perature limiter automatically turns the
vacuum off. Some models also have a
warning light , which comes on to in-
dicate that the vacuum has overheated.
This can occur if, for instance, large
articles block the suction tube or when
the filter bag is full or contains particles
of fine dust. A heavily soiled exhaust or
dust compartment filter can also be the
cause of overheating. Turn the vacuum
off and pull the plug from the outlet.
^ Check for any blockages and allow
the vacuum to cool for 30 minutes.
